You think the delusions of grandeur are high now? Trust me, pre-crash, they were simply insane.
The interesting certainty of the domain business is that there are always people whose first business is not domains who happen to have monster name, and they assess its value not on the reality of someone in the trenches every day, but from the distant valuations of appraisal services and wankers.
I remember a few years ago, I way overpaid for xxx.net, a simply astounding figure for a .net, and the cocksucker who sold it to me was not thankful, but went as far as to complain about a $100 escrow fee. Mid xx,xxx's for a net and he still had this idea he'd been ripped when in fact he'd done really, really well on my exhuberance.
Sadly, so many stories like that.
